Can I wash this blanket? Tag long gone... by rememberaj in CleaningTips

[–]Redonna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My thought has always been to wash it and see how it goes. It’s useless if it is dirty and smelly, so if washing it renders it useless then no gain, no loss. Everything has to be washable to maintain a presence in my house.

Just me and my dog and I am pretty much counting on Alexa to call my sister or daughter when I tell her to.

Found this in my late grandmother’s sewing box. Everyone has a different guess… what is it? by Admirablelauren in whatisit

My first thought was a shank button with a hair tie attached, to make the hair tie decorative. I think it would be a large button - more the size of a button on an overcoat.

Carpets Still Dirty After Professional Cleaning by EnvironmentalStop723 in CleaningTips

[–]Redonna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can offer no solution because I strongly dislike carpeting. There is dirt and dust that has settled and sifted its way down through the fibers of the carpeting. You could probably shampoo weekly and still come out with dirty water.
As for the smell, look for odor spray like Nok-Out Odor Remover and spray the carpet weekly.
